The Bridge By THE DIRECTOR'S CUTS

THE DIRECTOR’S CUTS, BORN WITH THE MEETING IN LONDON ON AUTUMN 2016 OF FILM AND MUSIC PRODUCER PETER PAHOR (PETERPAHOR.COM) AND SINGER SONGWRITER JON HART ZWILD (FACEBOOK.COM/JONHARTZWILD).

THE PROJECT WANTS TO MIX VARIOUS ELEMENTS OF HARD ROCK, INDUSTRIAL AND SOUNDTRACK WITH AN EXPERIMENTAL VIDEOGRAPHY.

THE MUSIC OF THE DIRECTOR’S CUTS SETS ITS ROOTS IN OLD CLASSIC BANDS LIKE SABBATH, GUNS N ROSES, METALLICA, IRON MAIDEN, RAMMSTEIN AND MARYLIN MANSON. THE SOUND, STRUCTURE AND PRODUCTION IS STRONGLY INFLUENCED BY MODERN COMPOSER LIKE HANS ZIMMER, DANNY ELFMAN AND MICHEAL NYMAN. INDIE INDUSTRIAL BANDS LIKE LAIBACH, PAIN, DOPE STARS INC., KMFDM... PLAY ALSO AN IMPORTANT PART IN THE MIX OF THE BAND. THE ELECTRONIC AND AMBIENT ELEMENT OF PROJECTS LIKE DAFT PUNK AND MASSIVE ATTACK IS ANOTHER SIDE OF THE SOUND.

THE VIDEOGRAPHY IS MINIMAL, CONCEPTUAL AND EXPERIMENTAL TAKING A LOT OF REFERENCES BY POP CULTURES AND INDIE CINEMA. THE SHORT FILM FORMAT TOGETHER WITH MOTION AND GRAPHIC DESIGN IS ANOTHER ELEMENT IN THE VISUAL LOOK OF THE WORKS.

THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE GROUP IS ON CONTEMPORARY TOPICS. THE NARRATIVE IS IN A NARRATIVE FORM AS A PASSIVE VIEWER OF THE TODAY’S WORLD AND SOCIETY. ANGER, EMOTIONS, SADNESS, NOSTALGIC FEELINGS AND ROMANCE ARE VARIOUS TOOLS IN THE COMMUNICATION OF THE STORY OF THE PROJECT.

PRODUCED BY PETER PAHORLYRICS BY JON HARTZ WILDSTARRING CHRIS WILSON AND DMITRIJS LEVCENKOVS.

"THE BRIDGE IS A SONG ABOUT THE STRUGGLES WE FACE IN EVERDAY LIFE AND WEATHER WE CAN STAY POSITIVE IN OUR GOALS TO REACH OUR DESTINATION, OR GIVE UP AND LOSE HOPE. THE LYRICS ARE NOT SPECIFIC TO ANY PARTICULAR EVENT SO THEREFORE IS OPEN FOR THE AUDIENCE TO RELATE TO IN THEIR OWN WAY".

"I DECIDED TO INSERT THE VIDEO IN A FICTIONAL 90S LOCAL MUSIC CHANNEL. THE CONCEPT IS HOW MUSIC AND INTERACTION WITH MUSIC HAS CHANGED IN THE YEARS WITH THE ERA OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND HOW THIS HAS INFLUENCED US (PEOPLE THAT LIVED THAT ERA) IN OUR HUMAN RELATIONS. I WANTED TO ESTABLISH A CONNECTION AND A STRONG CONTRAST WITH THE MUSIC AND LYRICS WHILE TELLING THE STORY".

THE FEAR OF LOVE IS COMING UPON ME(El temor al amor cae sobre mi)CAN I RISE ABOVE OR WILL I NEVER BE FREE(¿Podré superarlo o jamás seré libre?)A NEW DAY WILL DAWN PLANTING A NEW SEED(Plantaré una nueva semilla en un nuevo amanecer)IT'S NEVER ENOUGH MUCH MORE THAT I NEED.(Pero nunca será suficiente, porque necesito mucho más)

STANDING AT THE BRIDGE IT'S TIME TO MAKE MY CALL(Me detengo en el puente, es momento de tomar mi decisión)AS I WALK A LONG I BEGIN TO FEEL SO SMALL(Mientras realizo largas caminatas comienzo a sentirme tan pequeño)STANDING AT THE BRIDGE IT'S TIME TO MAKE MY CALL(Me detengo en el puente, es momento de tomar mi decisión)CAN I WALK ACROSS OR WILL I BEGIN TO FALL(¿Podré superarlo/triunfar o fracasaré en el intento?)
